Raja Ampat... - a photo on Flickriver

Raja Ampat...

            Several years ago, I realized a long-desired dream. With this sailing boat I went on a diving safari in the waters of Raja Ampat, an archipelago east of New Guinea, which includes over 1800 islands. And it was the most beautiful thing I had ever experienced. The dive sites there are incredibly rich in species, so it is a dream above and below the water. Here we came back to the boat from a tour by Zodiac. When I saw this unique twilight mood, we had to stop so I could take a picture of it. Well, I didn't have a good camera then, but a small impression of this wonderful mood is still clearly visible.

Vor etlichen Jahren habe ich mir einen lang ersehnten Traum erfüllt. Mit diesem Segelboot habe ich eine Tauchsafari in den Gewässern von Raja Ampat unternommen, ein Archipel östlich von Neuguinea, das über 1800 Inseln umfasst. Und es war das Schönste, was ich je erlebt hatte. Die Tauchgründe sind dort unglaublich artenreich, so dass es über und unter Wasser traumhaft ist. Hier sind wir von einer Tour per Zodiac zum Boot zurückgekommen. Als ich diese einzigartige Dämmerungsstimmung sah, mussten wir anhalten, damit ich sie fotografieren konnte. Nun, ich hatte damals noch keine gute Kamera, doch ein kleiner Eindruck dieser herrlichen Stimmung ist trotzdem gut sichtbar.
